Right the wonderbus needs the steering sorting the box is worn, (I know this) but the problem, I believe is the drag link bar. I have replace all ball joints, and set the drag link bar to the length it was, but after 2 wheel alignments (2 different centres) the steering wheel is still on the wonk and it is pulling to the right.

If I take it to Land Rover (or a Land Rover specialist) do they have a way of re-setting the steering and the Drag link to stop the problem because its obvious to me that the regular wheel alignment process is not working.

Right read it, already know the techniques involved. Was just wondering if I can take it to a centre, where the alignment can be set, with all steering geometry set properly and not just by sight/feel.

Hi, Any decent place should be able to set it up. Just tell them to put the steering in neutral by aligning the hole in the pitman arm (Arm on steering box)with the hole in the steering box, then adjust both wheels and then align the steering wheel!
